   By the way, dont forgot to logon your ATC CPDLC first :)

import asyncio

from python_cpdlc import CPDLC, Network

async def main():
    # Create CPDLC client with your email and hoppie code
    # Please dont use mine :(
    cpdlc = CPDLC("[e-mail]", "9BWovZBXLUy21m")
    # of course, you can use your own hoppie server
    # cpdlc = CPDLC("[e-mail]", "9BWovZBXLUy21m", "http://www.hoppie.nl/acars/system")
    
    # Set your callsign first, and you can change this anytime you like
    # But if you change this callsign, you may miss some message send to you
    cpdlc.set_callsign("CES2352")
    
    # You can change your network if necessary
    # You can got your current network by cpdlc.network
    cpdlc.change_network(Network.VATSIM)
    
    # Start poll thread for message reveiver
    # If you dont call this function you cant receive message
    cpdlc.start_poller()
    # You can also use Thread to start and I recommend this method
    # If you use this lib on a GUI program
    # Thread(target=cpdlc.start_poller, daemon=True).start()
    
    # send login request
    cpdlc.cpdlc_login("ZSHA")
    # you can also send some other thing like DCL or just some message to someone
    
    # wait 60 seconds
    await asyncio.sleep(60)
    
    # request logout
    cpdlc.cpdlc_logout()
